Since the attack on 911 the Cape May County Sheriff's Office will not send department patches through the mail. Only requests made in person will be honored and only if the patches are available. We apologize for this, but feel it is important for security reasons.

As of June 15, 2009, inmate visiting at the Correctional Center has changed. Visitation is now by appointment only. Be sure to read the Rules and Instructions posted on the Correctional Center Visiting Page of the Cape May County Sheriff's Office.
